file upload issue

[will_jones]

I am building a site where users can upload mp3 files.

Certain mp3 files will not upload. I can get it to work for some but not others. Any ideas why this is. I don't think its a protected mp3 issue as i checked that but using the below code, some files display their attributes and some don't.

The code simplified....

echo '

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="" method=post>

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="10000000">

<input name="userfile" type="file">

<input type="submit" value="upload tune">

</form>';

echo $_FILES["userfile"]["name"];

echo $_FILES["userfile"]["type"];

echo $_FILES["userfile"]["size"];

Anybody come across similar problems ????

The default maximum file size for uploads is about 5MB; which is probably the reason why only some are failling. You are using the "MAX_FILE_SIZE" HTML attribute but this isn't always guaranteed to work.

 

Take a look at this; has some suggestions on how to increase your max. file upload size.

Turns out i was changing the max file size in the wrong php.ini file.

I use wamp server and there are two ini files. The one that i should of been changing was in the apache folder.
